SKATING ICON DOROTHY HAMILL JOINS
EMMY AWARD-WINNING STARS ON ICE
Olympic Gold Medalist, World Champion and Three-Time U.S. National Champion Dorothy Hamill Returns to America’s Most Beloved Figure Skating Tour,
Joining Fans in Lake Placid as They Honor Figure Skating Legend Kurt Browning in One of His Final U.S. Performances at the Olympic Center on December 30th at 7:30 PM
TICKETS FOR LAKE PLACID ARE ON SALE NOW
(Lake Placid, NY) – The country’s premier figure skating production, Stars on Ice, is proud to announce the return of one of the sport’s most cherished athletes, Olympic Gold Medalist, World Champion and Three-Time U.S. National Champion, Dorothy Hamill. One of the most beloved American sports icons, Hamill won the hearts of skating fans around the world with her dominant performance in taking Gold at the 1976 Winter Olympic Games in Innsbruck, Austria. Hamill is credited with developing a new skating move; a camel spin that turns into a sit spin, which became known as the “Hamill Camel.” The bobbed hairstyle that she wore during her Olympic performance started a fad, and she quickly became “America’s Sweetheart.”
Joining a cast of Olympic, World and National Champion skaters on the 2012-13 Tour, Hamill will help bid a fond farewell to longtime cast member Kurt Browning, who will be giving his final U.S. tour performances. The Stars on Ice “Now & Then” Tour will kick-off with a special performance at the Olympic Center in Lake Placid, NY on Sunday, December 30, 2012, at 7:30 PM.
Stars on Ice continues to be a pioneer in figure skating by offering fans the rare opportunity to witness some of the world’s most creative and cherished champions performing together in both individual and ensemble routines. Joining Dorothy Hamill on this year’s tour is a stellar cast of world-renowned athletes, including Four-Time World Champion & Four-Time Canadian National Champion Kurt Browning; Two-Time Olympic Gold Medalist Ekaterina Gordeeva (Russia); 1998 Olympic Gold Medalist Ilia Kulik (Russia);2010 Olympic Bronze Medalist Joannie Rochette (Canada); U.S. National Champion Ryan Bradley; Two-Time European Bronze Medalists and Seven-Time British National Dance ChampionsSinead & John Kerr; and Canadian National Silver Medalist Shawn Sawyer.

The Saranac Lake Veterans of Foreign Wars monthly meeting is held every third Tuesday of the month at 7pm at the VFW on Broadway in Saranac Lake.
The NYSAFP Foundation will honor George Hart, MD, for his years of service to patients and his exemplary leadership within the Academy of Family Physicians at a reception at 5:30 p.m. on Friday, January 18th in conjunction with our 2013 Winter Weekend January 18th – 20th. The 2013 conference will be held at the High Peaks Resort in Lake Placid where Dr. Hart and his family reside.
Dr. Hart served as president of the Academy in 1970-71 and was an active and respected leader in the formation and growth of the Academy and the specialty of Family Medicine. His distinguished career in medicine and his extraordinary achievements as a community leader in Lake Placid epitomize the traditional role of the physician and establish Dr. Hart as a role model for young physicians.
We will honor Dr. Hart by establishing a fund within the NYSAFP Foundation in his name to support our work with medical students and residents in Family Medicine and to develop the leadership and advocacy skills of family physicians in the model which Dr. Hart and so many of his colleagues in the Academy have done over the years.
We hope to make this event a fitting tribute to Dr. Hart. We invite you to report on this event and attend and cover the tribute on January 18th.
Donations to the Dr. hart Fund may be made directly to the NYSAFP Foundation via PayPal on our webpage: http://www.nysafpfoundation.org/index/donate-now-5.html.
Donations to the Foundation are eligible for exemption from federal and NYS income taxes.
“Art Lover, A Biography of Peggy Guggenheim,” by Anton Gill is this month’s choice of the Lake Placid Institute Book Club, which will meet at the Lake Placid Library at 7 p.m., Monday, January 28. Ms. Guggenhiem, was left a small fortune at a young age after her father went down on the Titanic. She soon relocated to Europe, moving about with the American expat group of bohemian writers and artists of the day. She has been dubbed by some as the “mistress of modern art” but was equally well known for her colorful and scandalous life style.
The LPI Book Club usually meets 7 p.m. on the last Monday of the month to discuss books about arts and architecture. All are invited to join in the discussion or to come just listen.
